AP jungle Yi.

So anyway, Ive been playing AP yi alot, and ive alwaysd love jungling, so I thught why not try to mix the two, and so I did.

So I was just curious if the community would try me AP jungle Yi, and see if they like it.

Anyway....

1. Summoner Spells-any of these work, but some worlk better than others.
~Smite (Preferred)
~Ghost (Preferred)
~Flash
~Ignite
~Exhaust
~Clarity (only if you are for some reason unable to get blue buff)

Masteries/Runes
Honostly your masteries should be the same for a good portion of the casters in LoL, and you should use your own personal masteries/rune book, for AP jungle yi.

Skill Order
1. A.Strike
2. Medi
3. Wuju Style

After level 3 it should be R>Q>W>E.

Rotation

Start by buying 1 AP pot and 5 HP pots.
1. Blue Buff ( you should pop 1 HP pot, your AP pot, and smite) OR get a red pot and wuju style.
2. Wolves (health pot if needed)
3 .Wraiths
4. Small Golems
5. Try to gank, if not, wait for smite and get just Lizard
6. Honostly by now, theres no specific order, since one A,Strike should take out most of each creeps HP.

Build.
There is a specific order and certain build I use, but if you feel comfortable with another build, go ahead and use yours.

Yes i have had success with Aplha Strike Proccing, but its harder, and requires some RNG with a crit or two, however i failed to mention that if u can have a person from top lane auto attack golem 3 or 4 times its helps phenomanally

The reason for starting out with Blue Pot is because it gives u a really nice amount of AP early on, and that 10% CDR is very useful early, also i did a few tests but it seems like you could go ether way, although with Blue Pot you go faster, but you stay at around ~40% health consistently, and with cloth armor you stay around ~60% health, however by 10 minutes, I was 1 lvl higher, using Blue Pot over cloth armor.

The CD reduction will be useless if you have any CD runes or masteries. You will not Alpha the blue twice and once you have blue you need only 10% from runes and masteries to be capped.

I have run AP Yi in the jungle before and I always preferred to take Doran's Ring and ignore the big camps for quite a while. AP Yi tears through the small camps and can come into a lane and toss one Alpha to help a teamate push back or harrass quite well.
